How to Get to Koversada #
Koversada is the large coastal peninsula/nudist resort area just north of the small town of Vrsar in Istria. By car, follow the A9 motorway (Istrian Y) to the Poreč/Vrsar exits and continue on the local coastal roads toward Vrsar; from Poreč it is roughly a 10-15 km drive south along the county roads. Regional buses run to Vrsar from larger Istrian towns (Poreč, Rovinj) during the tourist season; from Vrsar bus stops Koversada is a short local taxi ride or a walk of a couple of kilometres along coastal paths depending on which part of the peninsula you wish to reach.
Tips for Visiting Koversada #
- Koversada is best visited outside the peak July-August weeks (or early/late in the day) when the large naturist campsite is quieter and accommodation/parking pressure eases.
- The site is a dedicated naturist resort near Vrsar - be prepared for widespread nudity in the campsite and communal areas and plan to use nearby Vrsar beaches or a different campsite if you prefer textile beaches.
- Use Vrsar as your base: most visitors arrive via the short road from Vrsar and then walk or cycle the coastal paths into the Koversada peninsula; day visitors should check access and parking options in advance.
- Walk the headland beyond the main facilities to find quieter rocky coves and clearer snorkeling spots that many day-trippers miss.
Best Time to Visit Koversada #
Visit Koversada in late spring or early autumn for warm weather and fewer tourists; summer brings peak coastal crowds.
